A student is investigating the affect of different salts on melting points. Four patches of ice of equal size are roped off and

a different
type of salt is poured on each one receives table salt (NaCl), one receives Calcium Chloride (CaCl2), one receives Potassium
Carbonate (KCO3) and the fourth receives Inert sand instead. Each patch receives an equal amount of salt or sand. The student
measures the volume of ice remaining and subtracts it from the original volume of ice to see how much melted away. What is the
dependent variable?
•
A. The type of salt applied to the ice.
B. The amount of lee that melted.
C. The ice that received sand.
D. The size of the Ice patches

Answer:

B. The amount of lee that melted.

Explanation:

The dependent variable is more of what results from an action during an experiment. It is actually what is being tested for. In the experiment, the scientist seeks to understand the effect of salts on melting point of ice. He selects the different salts which can cause a ice to melt (independent variables) then he sets up to find out the effect of the salt on the ice.

He cannot control how much ice will melt. The properties of the salts would determine the extent and rate of the dissolution of the ice pack. This is the dependent variable which relies on the nature of the salt.

Why is variations beneficial to the species but not necessary to individuals ​
Nimfa-mama [501]
Variations are beneficial for the survival of the species. Populations of organisms fill well-defined places, or niches, in the ecosystem, using their ability to reproduce.However, if some variations were to be present in a few individuals in these populations, there would be some chance for them to survive.

Answer: The SA node

Answer choices are:

<span>A.      </span>The AV node

<span>B.      </span>The SA node

<span>C.      </span>The purkinje fibers

<span>D.     </span>The AV bundle

The SA node<span> is the heart's natural pacemaker consisting of a cluster of cells located in the upper part of the wall of the right atrium. (the right upper chamber of the heart). The electrical impulses are produced and sent out from there to regulate heartbeat. This is also called the sinus code.  </span>

The correct option from given options is "b", that is <span> it changed ideas about which animals were closely related.
</span>Cladistics<span> was </span>invented for the purpose of improving on taxonomy and it is a way to deal with biological classification. DNA technology lead to more use of cladistics because it changed ideas about which animals were closely related and also it showed new evolutionary relationships between animals.

Question 4 (1 point) If 18 grams of oxygen reacts completely with 4 grams of hydrogen, we would expect how many grams of water?
Lisa [10]

Answer:

C.22 grams because mass cannot be created or destroyed

Explanation:

Reaction equation:

        2H₂  +   O₂    →   2 H₂O

Mass of oxygen  = 18g

Mass of hydrogen  = 4g

The mass of water produced is 22g according to law of conservation of mass.

The law states that " in a chemical reaction, mass is always conserved"

 The sum of the mass of product  and reactants must always be the same.
